Adding to the list: The Adventures of Reemo Green. Very funny, and the first time I’ve watched AI video and enjoyed it as more than a technical curiosity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bYA2Rv2CQ8

It sounded very weird to me too. Perspective projection isn’t equal area. But I think he’s probably not trying to say that the projection would be identical, just that a circle in the center corresponds to one half of the globe.

It’s not a definition, it’s an implementation. A definition would be something like ”constrain a number to an interval defined by two other numbers”. That happens to be identical to sorting and picking the middle value. The only difference

I would be a little upset if a clamp function could throw a validation error when I passed only numbers. I’ve always written clamp to work even if min is larger than max. Basically, clamp comes down to sorting the three numbers and returnin

Just got a brand new iPhone 17 Pro. Even in the setup flow there are tons of little UI glitches going on. Layout jumping around randomly, screens resetting awkwardly, icons not laid out well in their buttons. Not so great first impressions

This is a serious project that has been going on for over a decade. In fact, it looks like it hasn’t been updated very much for the past four years or so. So, most of the content predates AI hallucinations. If you can point out specific exa

I can see how the bill itself was a mistake, but the real scary thing to me is the timeline. Seven days from action required to deletion of all your data isn’t reasonable under any circumstances.

Terrible article. Did Hassabis really say ”learning how to learn” is itself a skill , like the article paraphrases it? Surely the skill isn’t that you can learn how to learn, the skill is that you know how to learn. Just like ”learning t

This would have been very exciting 5 years ago. Today I’m longing for reducing lock-in to specific frameworks, and using the platform more directly.

This is all true. But it is what we have. I’ve found myself wondering if a model with stronger conceptual integrity could be designed and use CSS as a compilation target. For example, with container queries and calcs you could probably impl

It matters if the result is not the same. The article argues that this is an important aspect of what a human developer does that current AI cannot. And I agree. As I said, I find the idea very convincing as a general explanation for when a

The point isn’t that writing and reading aren’t useful. The point is that they’re different from forming new neurological connections as you familiarize yourself with a problem. LLMs, as far as I know, can’t do that when you use them.
